Abstract

In thin-film solar cells optical scattering eects at rough layer interfaces are exploited to enhance the light absorption and make it possible to construct thin cells with inorganic materials such as a-Si or c-Si [5]. SETFOS [2] is an optical and electrical device simulator, that is widely used in the OLED and OPV community. To perform an optical simulation of an arbitrary combination of inorganic or organic layers of any thickness, it is necessary to be able to treat light propagation both as coherent or incoherent. We have therefore extended the optical model of SETFOS for the treatment of mixed systems of incoherent/coherent layers. We have broadened the scope of the simulator by including scattering eects at rough layer interfaces.
